Fun ideas
This has been a fun book with some unique ideas. The projects mostly use common products that you will probably have on hand. Many projects for a bit younger than my 11 and 13 year old. Clear instructions and pencil drawings of the project so you can 'see' what is should look like.

I can't wait till my kids try it out!
I ordered this book as a Christmas gift for my kids ages 4 and 7. They love art, and I love the idea of doing art projects from around the globe. It came in the mail yesterday and flipping through it, I am very pleased and excited for Christmas to come so my kids can try some of the projects. It has a rating system to help you with picking projects which is nice.

A great book!! Easy projects and ideas. We have had this for over seven years and LOVE it. Great for parties, for when visitors come. I am finally making time to do this review. We’ve used it as a resource for artsy projects with supplies I typically have on hand, making for a great go-to when screen time is not available/offered. Fantastic, easy, hands-on and imaginative projects! Highly recommend.

Defective
The content looks nice. I'm sure we'll enjoy it. However, we received a defective book. The cover is upside down.

Such a cool book for younger kids!
This book is broken up by continent and then country. Each continent has a bibliography of books to go with, mostly kids books by the looks of it. Then every art project has a blurb about how it relates to the country. This is such a fun learning tool!

So fun!
Love the variety and the cultural uniqueness of each project. My kids and I love this book.

Très bon livre qui permet d'allier la découverte d'un pays à son artisanat... avec des activités différentes et variés (découpage, collage, cartonnage, cuisine, tissus...) Ma fille de 4 ans est très en demande et les grands aiment bien aussi l'aider, voire en faire un de plus :) (avoir un niveau satisfaisant en anglais pour une bonne compréhension)

The book is full of unique craft ideas from all over the world. The instructions are wonderful and clear. We have had most of the matieeals on hand (but not all of them). My only complaint is that there are no photos of the finished product - just rough black and white illustrations... Which does not excite my 4.5 year old very much. When reaching for a craft book, she never reaches for this one and she says it's because her other craft books have coloured photographs of each craft, which helps her to better understand what the craft is and what it will look like... So, it's a good book, lots of creative ideas, but no photos. Just rudimentary illustrations.
